Darkness of Rain

Sydney has been facing some tough rain lately. The days have become shorter, the light dims faster and the body starts to lag. Time slows and bones chill.

We were fortunate enough to not experience too much rain in New Zealand, but even when we did we found the beauty in the day. Rain darkens things but sometimes that darkness is itself a beautiful thing.

The mist came over the mountains and surrounded us gently and our breathe could be seen dancing through our lips as we talked. The coffee tasted better, the conversations were warmer, our scarves wrapped tighter and the fire burned brighter.

With rain comes the most gorgeous light - everything seems a little more clear, a little more vivid. These photos make me want to cozy up under a warm blanket with a cup of coffee in hand! But realistically here, it's about 80 degrees and SUPER humid, so that might not be the best idea ;)

Agreed. It's raining right now, actually. I live in Utah, so I feel like when it rains it adds this whole new dimension to it, since it doesn't happen too often. Although this summer it has been raining quite a bit. I love those two pictures of you standing in front of picnic tables. You're an amazing photographer!xoxoe the little diary

These pictures...I can't find the words! So evocative :-) Rain is amazing...it intensifies, it saturates. It makes inside seem cosier and outside seem more wild and beautiful. I get restless if it hasn't rained in a long time!

Goodness me, your blog is beautiful! It is a shame I am only discovering it now but I am glad I found it all the same lol. These photos of yours are exquisite. I love rainy days but the way you captured the magic of those days has given my fascination with photography a jolt :) *rushes off to rattle your archive*
